This is the Pythagorean theorem where the 2 legs of a triangle squared add up to equal the squared hypotenuse (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

The equation would be
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2

144 + 25 = 169

The square root of 169 = 13

Answer - 13 ft

g(x) = 3x - 2

<u>Step 2: Find g(1)</u>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    g(1) = 3(1) - 2
  2. Multiply:                               g(1) = 3 - 2
  3. Subtract:                              g(1) = 1

<u>Step 3: Find f[g(1)]</u>

  1. Substitute in g(1):                    f[g(1)] = 2(1) + 1
  2. Multiply:                                   f[g(1)] = 2 + 1
  3. Add:                                         f[g(1)] = 3
